Jon Merrill, a second round draft pick (38th overall) by the New Jersey Devils in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, said in late March that he hadn’t given much thought to turning pro early, but said at the time he’d make up his mind sooner rather than later.

Glendening, a 5-foot-11, 193-pound forward, scored a career-high 21 points (10 goals, 11 assists) last season. He finished his career at Michigan with 70 points and one of only eight players in program history to be named captain in multiple years.
